@PatrickoftheG That show is after my time mostly, but I like the counterpoint!

Ottawa–Alberta talks on a $130/tonne carbon price show something else: the federation still works. Even on divisive energy policy, provinces negotiate outcomes within a national framework. That undercuts separation narratives since Canada’s strength is working together, not walking away. https://buff.ly/nlYglKR#CanadianUnity#CDNPoli#Federalism#CarbonPricing#Alberta

@dbcurren.bsky.social the link just demands I download the apple.news app and doesn't show me the story.

Saw a post over on FB from The Breakdown that the Alberta separatist petition has been struck down by the court. Waiting for an official report though. Edit: Canadian Press has put a breaking news story out:https://lethbridgeherald.com/news/national-news/2026/05/13/cp-newsalert-judge-quashes-alberta-separation-petition-in-favour-of-first-nations/#Alberta #abpoli

@satchmo35 I’d describe it as ‘vice signaling’

@satchmo35 as I started reading... Yep it's a Bell(end) article.What drivel.

Another email template! This one is to demand an independent public inquiry into the exposure of 2.9 million Albertans’ personal data. Inquiries can happen at the same time as RCMP investigations (that could take years!).In my case, I will address it to Smith (my MLA is NDP) and cc everyone else, including my MLA.Everything seems hopeless but it’s worth a shot!https://substack.com/home/post/p-196689218#alberta #publicInquiry #albertaPolitics #emailYourMLA #abpoli #referendum #petition
